The Vow 1.0 stars

Channing Tatum tries to squeeze his hulking, chiseled physique into the role of a sensitive guy whose wife wakes up from a coma with no memory of him and no real desire to resume married life. It’s not a great fit. Rachel McAdams, on the other hand, is impossibly cute as an urban sculptor (sigh) who reverts to the privileged suburban princess she once was. It’s slick marketing — how many wives wish their husbands would woo them all over again? — but it loses steam by forgoing the meaning of a vow in favor of the feelings it may (or may not) inspire. 2012.
